[IC] ROLEPLAY DEATH BATTLE!ActRaiserTheReturned and Zerofighter

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

Shinnok noticed his army was growing thinner, the damage was being done by the Hayabusa Ninja Clan, and all the other Ninja Clans uniting with the Lin Kuei and Shinryu with all of Earth Special Forces, the Shao Lin, Fu Jin, Raiden, and the new forces of Out World led by Kotal Kahn were busy fighting against the hordes of Nether Realm down below. At the moment, Shinnok was waiting in Sky Temple, on the throne, decorated with twin golden dragons, the Elder God sat down, sipping a goblet of wine. He knew that the war was won despite all. This wasn't a war. This wasn't even a battle. The Elder Gods would be destroyed once Shinnok corrupted the One Being and the universe would end, or perhaps the universe it'self would be corrupted for Shinnok to rule over, as if every part of the universe had become one with Nether Realm. Shinnok laughed as he peered into a mystically conjured orb that he could survey the fighting taking place down below.

He continued to drink his wine, as if he was dining on the blood of billions of innocents. Even though his forces were depleting, very slowly, they still out numbered the entire Earth Realm by very high exponential number. An inexhaustible supply of demons from his Nether Realm could conquer anyone.

[Zerofighter]

Ryu slashed through the Elder God's guards. This war was going to end tonight. He will take down Shinnok, and end this war. He saw he was close to the Sky Temple. He ran up the steps, and looked at Shinnok. He threw a shuriken at Shinnok's wine glass, to get his attention. "So your the Elder God Shinnok. I cant allow you to live...I will fight you here, and end this war." He drew his Dragon Sword, and glared at the god. "I challenge you..." Ryu Said ready to fight the Elder God. He taken on beings like this before.

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

"I can think of only one ninja clan worthy of my mild respect. Your clan, the Hayabusa, have done things even the Lin Kuei and Shinryu have been unable to accomplish, but that is all no matter. In the end, they will not last this war nor you, and you know it. I demand that you surrender and I shall make you Herald of the Netherealm, and Grand Marshal General of my armies. Search within your soul for the answers, mortal, you know it is the only way that this will end, your sister as my slave daughter of war, and you as my First. "

"Surrender now and Rachel will be spared torture and execution. Fight on and she will be crucified and burned alive".

[Zerofighter]

Ryu's eyes widen with anger. But the Elder God's praise didnt faze him. "No....I shall not take your offer, and succomb to your evil deeds. I wont allow you to harm others." He said "Such selfish arrogance. I cant allow this!" He in a lightening fast movement through a flash bomb in the ground. He jumped on a wall climbing on it, and firred several arrows at the Elder God.

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

Shinnok laughed as the arrows soared at him, he casually knocked them aside with his Cobra precision and the perceptive force of an omniscient God, knocking aside lethal projectiles of war like they were baby toys thrown at him by a temper tantrum throwing child. "I already had your precious Rachel as a Courtesan. I think I made her scream as much as when I tore the pieces off her body with nine tails!" He spat with the venom of a snake. Shinnok responded to Ryu's arrows with green balls of concussive energy, designed to knock him senseless with each landing blow. Laughter followed as he taunted the Hayabusa clan member.

[Zerofighter]

Ryu's eyes widen in anger, and said "You shall die here!" He used his ninpo to shoot fireballs at the green energy. The blast colided in a mix of green and orange. Ryu jumped down, and glared at the so called god. As he landed threw several more shurikens. They were a mix of normal, epxlosive, and Windmill. He then jumped over to the other side of the room. Ryu took out the kusarigarma(Chainsickle) swung it in the air. *I have to remain my cool....if Im not careful I could die, and all of this would be for nothing.* He swung the chainsickle toward the elder god.

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

Shinnok suddenly had to change strategies as he felt the explosive Shurikens knock him down. . . he avoided the wind mill shurikens not by dodging but by grabbing them and tossing them aside. Suddenly Shinnok felt Ryu's tactics change even more. He was as fast as Fu Jin! So the Elder God did his best avoid the chain sickles. He avoided most blows, but Ryu swung harder and harder until Shinnok just couldn't dodge anymore. With Quick thinking Shinnok grabbed the chain sickle in order to avoid it's skewering power, and jerked Ryu towards him as hard as he could, ready to splatter his skull with his fist, but Ryu was still separate from Shinnok by more than several meters.

Shinnok's eyes glew red, and he absorbed a spell from Ryu, the healing spell. "My what convenient Ninpo you've learned".

[Zerofighter]

Ryu smirked as the explosive shuriken hitthe elder god back, but cursed as the God Grabed the Chainsickle. They had a small sturggle before Shinnok puledhim over. He saw his eyes glow Red. He cursed as Shinnok pulled him over. Ryu hada idea. He grabbed two bombs, a regular one and flash bomb. He quickly threw both at the Elder god, and drew his Dragon Sword. He plunged forward, as the god pulled him, his sword point straight foreward. Ryu was going to attempt to plunge his sword into Shinnok.

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

Shinnok was disclipined enough to dodge the incoming blow, but it managed to graze the Elder God, causing him noticeable bleeding, which littered the floor in the Sky Temple as the bombs temporarily blinded him, and knocked him off his feet again. Shinnok pressed his skeletal arms and hands against the floor, summoning two flying devils with talons, and disfigured faces lined with jaws, soaring at Ryu Hayabusa, intent on devouring his body. Shinnok then slapped his right skeleton hand against the Sky Temple floor, causing green balls of energy to soar towards Ryu Hayabusa, all homing in on the ninja of the Hayabusa Clan. Shinnok slowly stood up, and raised his hands in a magical gesture at Ryu Hayabusa, as a green ray of light honed in on this rival, attempting to pull him forth as all the attacks and minions were swarming at his direction.

[Zerofighter]

Ryu smirked as the blade cut him. "Hurt doesnt it....I will makeyou feel worse pain."Ryu watched as two devils cames at him, and green balls of energy came at him. He cursed as something began pulling him foreward. He decied to use this to his advantaged. He dodged a coupld green balls of energy, and quickly shot one with a fireball before it hit him. He slashed one Devil's neck, and jumped foreward impaling the second one. He took out the Elcipse scythe, and jumped in the air. He swung downward on Shinook.

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

Shinnok would swerve to the side with a death grip on Ryu's arms, attempting shove his head downward very heard with his forehead against the back of Ryu's skull. The attack would make Shinnok's yanking of Ryu's arms back behind him worse, before he shoved his food VERY HARD on a downward's angle on Ryu's back. He followed up the attack with a mystical pulling force of Ryu to be seen prone in the air, followed by Shinnok conjuring a bone made scythe, which he hoped would make a fearsome strike, disembowling Hayabusa.

[Zerofighter]

Ryu cursed as the Elder God gripped his arms, and attemped to Hit Ryu's head with his forehead. He cursed falling over as the blow hit his bacl. He lookled seeing the god about to hit him with abone scythe. He brought his hands together, and concentrated. Instantly behind Shinnok appeared a red Ryu. It slashed Shinnok down the back before jumping backward and throwing its own shurikens.

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

Shinnok felt the stinging slice of the dragon sword against his flesh, down through his back. . . he snarled. Shurikens covered Shinnok's back. "That's not going to save you ninja curr!" Shinnok insulted. He grabbed Ryu by the neck and began to strike at his face with his skeletal hand. He would attempted to throttle or beat Ryu to death, and see if Ryu could last long.

[Zerofighter]

Ryu dobble ganer continued slicing Shinnok's back, but faded a little. Ryu cursed as the Elder god began punching him. The dobbleganger fadded. Ryu continued taking blow after blow. He reached for a dagger, and slammed it down on Shinnok's collar. he put his hands together and teleported away. Ryu spat out some blood, and began using the healing art. His wounds looked better now. He took out the falcon talons, and charged toward Shinnok.

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

Shinnok coughed blood from the edged weapon slicing near his neck, a blow that would have been fatal to a Human being. Since Shinnok had stolen the ninpo spell from Ryu earlier. . . he remembered to use it right about now, that he was safely away from Ryu. Ryu would have noticed him using the same spell. . . Frustratedly closing the wounds on all his body. Shinnok noticed with amusement that Ryu Hayabusa could have been the best Kombatant in the Realms. Conjuring a skeletal arm and claws, he soared the giant projectile at Ryu Hayabusa, all the more using his his magical skills to slam Ryu downward to the ground.

[Zerofighter]

Ryu froze seeing the elder god use the same healing spell. He had to becareful what he used against him. He watched as the god conjured a skeletal arm with claws. He saw projectiles coming toward him. He slashed them away with the falcon talons. One of the blades of the talons broke off as he did so. Ryu cursed as the magic made him slame to the ground. he reached for the broken talon, and threw it toward Shinnok's chest

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

Shinnok simply conjured his staff. . . knocking the talon out of the way. "Time for a change." Shinnok stated, as he cast a spell towards Ryu Hayabusa. . . Shinnok suddenly split into two of himself. One of the Shinnok's appearing behind Ryu as he was prone to attack on the ground, and Shinnok fired three green balls of energy, the same three types of projectiles fired by Shinnok before, following up with Shinnok conjuring giant skeletal hands out of the ground to grab Ryu and crush him.

[Zerofighter]

Ryu sensed the attacks were coming and teleported before the attacks hit him. He panted, and used the healing spell again. He summoned anohter Dobbleganger, and they were ready to fight. The Dobbleganger attacked the second Shinnok. He shot a few fireballs, before taking out the eye of the dragon. He attached it to the sword, and a small shockwave was made. He charged at Shinnok fast, sending multiple strikes at a lightening fast pace

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

As the Doppleganger attacked the other Shinnok, Shinnok showed his amulet towards the charging ninja of the Hayabusa Clan. An annihilating fireball soared into the material holding the Sky Temple up. . . crags of rock, both sharp debree and large bruising stones and marble, along with the searing heat of the fires roared towards Ryu Hayabusa. Shinnok once again wondered if the explosion, fire, and shrapnel like flying objects could put out Ryu Hayabusa for good.

[Zerofighter]

Ryu saw the attacks coming toward him, and he slashed through all the objects like butter. He blasted the other fireballs away with his own, and jumped foreward jumping on the other stones to help him get closer. he slashed a few more times, and began charging the Hayubusa Torn Sky Blast. "For Rachel!" He screamed firing the torn sky blast infront of the god.
